Synopsis
Roma is a boy who lives in a rural town not too far from Tokyo, but can’t seem to fit in. One day, he meets a boy akin to him named Toto, and they form a secret team that they call “DonGlees.” They were supposed to be the only members of the team, even if Toto moved to Tokyo for high school and Roma stayed in town.
However, during their first summer vacation of high school, a boy named Drop becomes a new addition to DonGlees. Drop says in passing, “Hey, would you guys like to see the world from above?” Roma and Toto take him up on it and follow him to a mountain. One thing leads to another and they end up getting framed for causing a wildfire. They wind up having to go in search of a missing drone that has evidence to prove their innocence. What started as a small adventure one summer soon develops into a life-changing journey beyond the boys’ wildest dreams.
Characters & Voice Actors
Roma (Roma Kamogawa): Natsuki Hanae
The only son of a farmer living in a rural town in the Kanto region. He doesn’t have any particular hobbies and can’t find anything that he can devote his time and energy to, so he spends his days doing odds and ends. He doesn’t fit in well at school and the only person he feels at ease with is his friend Toto. He typically only goes to places he can get to on his bike and never ventures outside of his neighborhood unless it’s a school trip or an extracurricular class.
Toto (Hokuto Mitarai): Yuki Kaji
The successor to Mitarai Clinic, a local medical practice his parents’ opened, which supports the community. He’s a bright boy who aspired to be a doctor when he was little, but just like Roma, he doesn’t fit in at school; so the two of them form “DonGlees” and make a secret hideout. It seems to Roma that after getting into a high school in Tokyo, Toto is enjoying his new life there with his flashy hairstyle. However, that might not be the case...
Drop (Shizuku Sakuma): Ayumu Murase
A boy from Iceland who comes to the rural town where Roma lives. He meets Roma, who is all alone after Toto moves to Tokyo, and they hit it off right away. Shizuku becomes a full-fledged member of DonGlees. There’s something mysterious about him, but he’s a positive guy who’s honest about everything. He tells Roma and Toto that the reason he came to Japan is to search for a treasure.
Tivoli Urayasu: Kana Hanazawa
A girl who moved to the rural town where Roma lives when she was in junior high school. People are drawn to her cheerful smile. She loves photography, and although she has never been in the same class as Roma, they one day exchange a few words when she sees him holding a single-lens reflex camera during an extracurricular class. However, before she can graduate, she has to move overseas because of her parent’s work.
Roma's father: Atsushi Tamura
An eldest son who inherited the farm from his parents. His younger brother and sister-in-law are also helping with the farm, so he has no intention of forcing Roma to take over. He hopes that Roma will take an interest in his old hobby of photography, but he can’t stand the sight of Roma looking so bored and listless, so at Mako’s suggestion, he makes him help with the farming.
Roma's mother: Rino Sashihara
A cheerful and generous woman. She met and married Taro when she was working at a local bank. Seeing Roma looking bored and unoccupied, she suggests to Taro that he bribes Roma with pocket money to help on the farm. Since her brother is working on breeding new spinach varieties at a research farm in Nagano, she asks Roma for ideas for names to give the new plants.
